Cost: 99¢
Silly band name, but better than I expected. There are too many Slaughter of the Soul-inspired bands out there, but at least this isn't metalcore/deathcore masquerading as melodeath; the band largely--but not completely--avoids those kinds of sounds. There's no clean singing of any kind, just high and guttural low vocals, but the vox seem quite forced, which don't doesn't mesh with the music all that well (sadly, they are somewhat reminiscent of -core bands). The band is pretty generous with decent guitar harmonies, but things feel quite one-dimensional from song to song, and the disc lacks distinctive material (aside from the cool power metallish/"Mars, the Bringer of War"-esque intro).
